I was just gifted some bottles of this stuff. I just used for first time today. I used about 4.25ml of A+B each per gallon. I'll adjust strength over a few days to get the right nutrient level. I water 3 times a day so I will dial it in quick. I suspect it will work fine though. Nutes are nutes, right?
 
The store I go to has them and they said no one has used them.so I said wut the heck and gave it a try.real impressed !super clean and ezy to mix. My growth is jest as good if not better than with h&g nutes.

I just came from aqua flakes myself.

I did 6ml per gallon today. Plants are slightly pale still. I'll maybe do 7ml tomorrow. I try not to burn my plants. Got some that are 10 days in to flower.

This stuff is definitely clean though. Maybe if we are lucky somebody more experienced with the stuff with appear to give us the heads up.
 
I have noted that u have to use a lil more than what they call for at least on ther a&b.i mix a 20 gallon tote and used 120ml a&b and 120 zyme. And 40ml of root.and 1/4 tsp per gallon of raw silica.and 12ml if aptus fasilator.lookin great still.

At the moment all I have is the base nutrients for veg and bud. Did you notice any differences using the zyme,root,silica,facilitator? I'm a bit poor at the moment so I can't afford anything that doesn't make a huge difference. I was thinking of adding Silica, maybe a little CalMag.

I moved up to about 7ml each of the bud a/b. Going good.

Day 22 here, she makes the 5gallon pot look small. More pics in my journal.

Hey guys, I just finished most of my outdoor grow for this season so I wanted you guys to check it out. It's in Coco. I used Black Label Nutrients and switched to General Organics for the last week or two. I'll update when I chop my final purple plant and when I make honey oil here soon! Check the link in my Signature!!! Ask any questions and I'll let you know.

Your grow looks good.

I just wanted to throw my name in the hat for people that use black label. I have been using them for 2 cycles so far, but only in veg. I havent switched my flower over yet cause i dont want to change teh flavor or aroma, but i think i will try a table or something.

Anyway, I absolutely LOVE this stuff. I have been using Veg a and B, Zyme, and their Root Enhance (which for the price, i dont think you could get better). Been sticking around 2ml / g and really, cant say enough good things. Everything just seems much happier, greener, and towards the end of veg (i run a LONG veg) i dont get the issues that i have had with GH. It is also really concentrated. i only have a 50g res for veg, but 1 gal of each lasted me 2 full cycles and about halfway through the 3rd, i had to buy a new bottle of Veg b (i raise the amount of B at the end of the cycle just to start pumping more PK and priming them for flower.

My question to you guys, if you used the Flower A and B, is:

What line were you using before you tried black label? and what were the differences in final meds when you were don (weight, smell, etc)?

I always add a little calmag to my mix. IMO, its mostly the MAG that we need more of (especially if you are using tap water). i have been using a silica product from Dyna-grow cause it was the cheapest and most concentrated, but recently switched to the new GH silca and actually REALLY like it. It is more concentrated than the DG stuff, but about the same price. The ZYme and the root enhance i would say i noticed a differnece, for sure, BUT, its not night and day. Rock the base nutes and add when you can. For my money, the GH silca would be the first thing i went for, then the root enhance and zym after.

I have been REALLY curious about the Aptus FaSilitator as well. Have heard good things but its mostly silica, and some VERY VERY minor trace elements that we are already getting in our mix. What are your thoughts on the fasilitotor?

I've done a lot of nutrient lines.

3part GH
FloraNova
Aqua Flakes

GO line
Solid Organics + water
A few other things I didnt use for long.

And it seemed to work at least equally as other synthetics. They all seem to work the same if you pay attention. It seemed really clean, like it would be great for hydro. And it was decent price.

There are so many minerals in my water that I skip calmag typically. I skipped it this run without any deficiencies. My water usually starts between 8.7-9.5 PH or something insane like that. It has much free nutrients in there. After I mix up nutrients I always find my PH to be in the zone, so I roll with it. I haven't tested PH in years. Never had a problem with it, so why tinker with it and cause a problem?
 
Nice job on the outdoor looks great..black label work good jest like the GH better still.so for hydro ive been using the Lucas + koolbloom and gh's new potassium silicate and a lil cal mag.thats it hard to beet that for as price and and quality for hydro.for soil i like general organics.
 
If anyone is still reading this thread, check out the thread on tee h c farmer. Specifically the one about Root Enhance. It has been proven to get some of the best roots out of any rooting product. Great stuff
